this is the year...my 30th high school reunion...i still can't believe it...it just doesn't feel like that many years have gone by...most times i still feel like i'm 30...am i in denial?
the thing that excites me most about the reunion...is the people...we've all turned out pretty well...and we are all rallying to make this a reunion that will be a time of togetherness...but also a time to give back...and that makes me excited...
i have been part of the planning committee since the beginning...and what started out as a nite for our reunion...has now evolved to a weekend event...
so here is where we stand now...
friday nite - we will be a part of the big football game...all the players will be announced at half-time...come to find out...that our class has been the only class that was undefeated...who knew? apparently our class is a big deal in sports discussions...all i know...is that my brother was attending another high school...which was our biggest rival...and being that we were both seniors (another story) i was thrilled when my school won the little big game that year...
now this is where it gets exciting...we have decided as a whole to spend a day (looks like about 100 of us) and do some work around the school...basically giving back...we haven't ironed out the details yet...but we will pretty much do anything...whether it is picking up trash, painting...whatever the school needs...
saturday nite will be the big party...location has been secured...save the date flyers are being made...
and sunday...we will have a huge picnic...with everyone...including the kids...at the local park where most of us spent a lot of our time...
i am thrilled to be part of the planning committee...and looking forward to an unforgettable weekend at the latter part of this year...seeing some that i never lost touch with...seeing others that i reconnected with in the last few years via facebook...and those that i haven't seen since graduating high school...eek! =)
